Siggraph 2003 - and visiting friends in San Diego/LA.

In 2003 my colleague Steve Rittler and I presented an animation course at SIGGRAPH 2003 in San Diego entitled, "There Can Be Only One. Independent Animation Production for the Lonely." Read a review. The next summer we returned to present another course at Siggraph in LA in 2004.
We also were able to goof off and meet up with friends. I also spent some time in San Diego, LA, and Tijuana, Mexico. Random pics of my cats in Joisy are at the end. :-)
